Details

To use this option, you must first set TPT=YES. This option is valid only when using the TPT API.

You can perform debugging by writing diagnostic messages to an external log file when loading data to Teradata using the TPT API. If you do not specify a name in TPT_TRACE_OUTPUT= for the log file, a default name is generated using the current timestamp. See your Teradata documentation for details.
